Post-translational Modification: Ubiquitination, Thesis of Techniques and Instrumentation for Biochemistry

Ubiquitination is a post-translational protein modification involving the attachment of ubiquitin, a 8.5 kda polypeptide, to the ε-amino group of lysine residues in target proteins. Monoubiquitination can lead to polyubiquitination, which targets proteins for degradation by the 26s proteasome. Ubiquitin is then recycled for reuse.

post translational modication ubiquitination
Ubiquitin is an about 8.5 kDa polypeptide consisting of 76 amino acids that is
appended to the 8 5 1 A-NH2 of lysine in target proteins via the C-terminal glycine of
ubiquitin. Following an initial monoubiquitination event, the formation of a
ubiquitin polymer may occur, and polyubiquitinated proteins are then recognized
by the 26S proteasome that catalyzes the degradation of the ubiquitinated protein
and the recycling of ubiquitin.
